The New Black Canon: Books, Plays and Poems That Everyone Should Know
The New York Times publishes a guide to the “New Black Canon”— “A guide to some of the undervalued 20th-century works that testify to the richness of the Black American literary archive… All were published last century…[and] together, they help to tell a story of Black American literature that reflects the infinite number of ways of being Black in America — and of being in the world.”
